August Is A Bittersweet Month For Dave Grohl

Dave Grohl has become a father for the third time. The Foo Fighters frontman and his wife Jordyn Blum welcomed a baby daughter into the world on August 1st, but kept the news out of the press. Baby Ophelia Saint Grohl is in good company with older sisters Violet Maye (8 years old) and Harper Willow (5 years old).

The birth announcement follows the sad news of the passing of Grohl’s father. The former newsman and political consultant passed away peacefully at age 75 with family by his side on August 6. Sources say that Grohl’s father passed after battling what they described as “a long-term illness”.

Right now, Dave is focusing on his growing family and his new album. The Foo Fighters’ new album, ‘Sonic Highways’, will be released on November 10th.
